911 1992 3.3 turbo 2 engine removal

hi
over the festive period my car developed the dreaded "flut flut flut" noise on tick over from especially underneath the car and when switching the engine off sometimes could be heard just before the engine came to a halt!!..i had been running the car now at 1 bar boost(peaking slightly above then resting at 1 bar) and with a cat bypass pipe fitted..
after checking the usual,when i removed the lower cam cover i found 2-off in total head bolts with part of the broken stud in them which have snapped and fell into the cover,,i will obviously have to now remove the engine to start with to start a rebuild,,i have always done all my own maintenance on my cars but was looking for to start with the procedures for removing the engine on this model,,car is a 1992 3.3 turbo with 94,000 miles on the clock and was bloody pulling like a train before and even now!!!
advice from yous more than welcome,,cheers!!

HI stup have you removed a 911 engine before??, if so then it is the same with the turbo extras, oil pipes, fuel pipes, and the extra weight, you will have to pull the box also, a good jack, axle stands and 2.5-3 Hours, how far up country are you?If you need any info give me a ring.

regards mike

I expect you will be successful obtaining answers to your questions on this site. Also a turbo link.

Imagine how she will pull in a couple of months!
